Meditation Park (1993 – 1995)

Inspired by African architecture, Chinese gardens, and Islamic courtyards, Lily Yeh designed the Meditation Park to provide a place for people to relax, reflect, reconnect, and re-center. The focal point of the park is the tiled mural “The Tree of Life,” which was designed by Lily Yeh and mosaicked by James (Big Man) Maxton. The Village construction team, comprised of neighborhood adults, constructed the inlaid floor and the sculptural walls.
